Rydan is upped in class and raised 5lb after beating Plymouth Sound at Salisbury and the unexposed Frontiersman is preferred as he steps up in distance. Gawdawpalin has a bit to prove over today’s trip judged on his recent effort at Ascot but SUNBLAZER makes more appeal having finished a close-up fourth, also at Ascot, when well ahead of Archangel Raphael. York winner Appeared has not raced since a poor effort back at the latter track in May, while although Not Never makes his belated seasonal debut, Ryan Moore’s presence suggests he may well be fully primed.
